Monday Monday

What a gorgeous day today turned out to be! Sorry to be so negative yesterday when I said something like "I can already tell this week is gonna be a long one". Today actually flew by and I stayed pretty busy with class, eating, studying, and.........well yea. That was about it.

Breakfast this morning was 2 extra tall cups of joe + hazelnut cream. Pure deliciousness. What a great way to start the day!

For lunch I whipped up a delicious sandwich concoction. I had one Amy's Tomato Parmesan veggie patty left to eat so I decided to finish it off. I fried an egg and added a slice of pepper jack cheese to the mix for a filling and delicious sammy. On Publix WW bread.

After lunch I was off to class and then I made it a study afternoon. I have got quite a bit of schoolwork this week so I was trying to be productive and time resourceful. I actually got a good bit accomplished at the student center today. Hopefully more productivity is in my future tonight!

When I got home, it was definitely dinner time. I roasted some brussels sprouts and served them over 1/2 cup Israeli couscous and topped that with dried cranberries. I am just loving this combo as of late, as I'm sure you have noticed! I baked a sweet potato as well and topped it with some butter and cinnamon. I think next time I'll stick with the sweet potato in "fry" form. Because yes, I suppose I still am a kid at heart. Also, this was my first go round with couscous and I must say I am a fan. It was different from anything I've ever had, but it went really well with my sprouts!

For dessert, I finished up the jar of PB and topped some whole wheat bread with that and banana. Perfect! Except now I HAVE to go grocery shopping. Because no, I cannot go a day without PB.

I didn't get a chance to run this afternoon so I'm hoping to go for a good evening run here in the next little bit. I'll report on that tomorrow. That should keep me motivated :)
